Beverley’s Liberal Democrats have called on local Conservative MP Graham Stuart to sack Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak following the revelation that both are to be fined over lockdown-breaking parties at Number 10.
The Liberal Democrats are also calling for Parliament to be recalled immediately so MPs can hold a vote of no confidence in Boris Johnson as Prime Minister, following the revelation that both he and Rishi Sunak are to be fined over lockdown-breaking parties at Number 10.
Councillor Denis Healy said:
“The Conservative MP for our area cannot hide behind lame excuses any longer. It is time for Graham Stuart to sack Boris Johnson. No more ifs or buts.
“Whilst people in Beverley made heartbreaking sacrifices during lockdowns, Boris Johnson and his team were partying in Downing Street.
“We all have painful memories of that lockdown, from not being able to see dying relatives, to being separated for months on end from our friends and family.
“How on earth can Conservative MPs keep supporting a law-breaking Prime Minister and Chancellor? Our country needs leadership right now, not a Government in chaos.”
Leader of the Liberal Democrats Ed Davey said:
“The country cannot have criminals and liars leading our Government, especially at a time of national and international crisis.
“Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak took the country’s sacrifices for granted, while they broke the law to party in Downing Street. They are not fit to hold office. If they had a shred of decency, they would resign.
“Parliament should be recalled immediately so that MPs can hold a vote of no confidence. Conservative MPs must do their patriotic duty and kick these criminals out of Government once and for all.”
The Lib Dems along with the other opposition parties show their real strength and policies – get rid of Boris by any means possible!
Do they have any sensible proposals of their own – NO!
Could any of their so called leaders have dealt with what Boris has had to deal with – NO!
Did any of them break Covid guidelines – no – yeah right, we believe you.
Thankfully we had Boris in power – the alternatives would unthinkable!
Steve this is really easy to answer for you – Boris Johson is a proven, liar which makes him untrustworthy.
This is not about politics but about integrity. He lied to you, he lied to me, he lied in the House of Commons and furthermore he lied to the queen.
